Anticipating a good amount of early pressure with many of these two-year-olds facing the starter for the first time. SHAMELIA KIRK (6) won a pair of Foxton trials impressively before finishing runner-up as a warm favourite on debut at Woodville just over 5 weeks ago when trying to make all the running over 1100m. Dropping back to 1000m should help here, and she can take them all the way this time. Follow your money. HIDDEN SPARK (10) makes her debut from an astute stable with no public trials. The New Plymouth track does hold local jump-outs, and she has had experience there, and using the market as our best guide is the wide choice. THUNDER SQUIRREL (5) was runner-up in his only public trial, and he is bred to swim in wet ground. He has a reasonable draw, and if not too green, he can figure in the top 3 on debut. FORT KNOX (2) can improve on his debut effort for sixth. Include. SUGGESTED PLAY: Shamelia Kirk should win, and Hidden Spark bears close watching.
